Each node represents an order state, and the number inside the node is the total number of orders that entered that state during the observation period. Directed edges between nodes represent observed transitions between states, with the order number labeled on that edge. Edge thickness is proportional to transition frequency to emphasize high volume transitions. This frequency-based visualization aids in identifying dominant pathways and rare transitions within the Consult workflow for a selected facility. Time performance (e.g., average transition time) can also be added to the edge.
